Subject: [PATCH 4.14 21/23] docs: submitting-patches: Fix crossref to The canonical patch format
Date: Fri, 3 Jun 2022 19:39:48 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220603173815.003147792@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220603173814.362515009@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Akira Yokosawa <akiyks@gmail.com>
commit 6d5aa418b3bd42cdccc36e94ee199af423ef7c84 upstream.
The reference to `explicit_in_reply_to` is pointless as when the
reference was added in the form of "#15" [1], Section 15) was "The
canonical patch format".
The reference of "#15" had not been properly updated in a couple of
reorganizations during the plain-text SubmittingPatches era.
Fix it by using `the_canonical_patch_format`.

The maintainer will thank you if you write your patch description in a
form which can be easily pulled into Linux's source code management
-system, ``git``, as a "commit log". See :ref:`explicit_in_reply_to`.
+system, ``git``, as a "commit log". See :ref:`the_canonical_patch_format`.
Solve only one problem per patch. If your description starts to get
long, that's a sign that you probably need to split up your patch.
